BETA

JSyn Examples now using the Beta Pure Java JSyn

Note: to hear the Pure Java JSyn you may need to uninstall your old native JSyn plugin. If you had installed it then you can uninstall it using the tool on this page.

To check whether you are running the new version, look in the Java Console when you run the Applet. You should see "Pure Java JSyn".

JSyn Performance Rack by Phil Burk

This Java Applet was written using JSyn, the audio synthesis API for Java, in 1997. You can find out how to add audio synthesis to your own applets at http://www.softsynth.com/jsyn

This Applet uses three types of synthesis: ring modulation, filtered noise, and subtractive synthesis. The ever changing melody is generated by a simple algorithm:

note[n] = note[n-delay] + offset;

where delay and offset are randomly generated. The melody is atonal and N-tone equal tempered.

There are no instructions. Just click and drag on everything and hear what happens. It is impossible to make mistakes. Have fun!

(Something not obvious. Holding down the SHIFT key while dragging across the vertical faders generates random values.)
